After you file

It means they are taking a deeper look at your return for some reason.  It could be something simple like you entered a number that doesn't match their records (ex. you entered that you received $1,200 for the Advanced Child Tax Credit Payments when you actually received $1,500) so they are making adjustments to your refund or something less simple as you owe back child support and they are looking at garnishing your return.  

 

  If they are making any changes to your return they will send you a letter in the mail. The only other thing you can do is try contacting the IRS at 800-829-1040 to see what they say.
